EXPERIENCE
Jd’s Tavern — Server
August 2024 - Present
At JD’s Tavern, I am the main closer, often working from 5pm to 3am.
I enjoy a fast paced work environment and handle the chaos well.
I greet tables, get drinks, appetizers, and entrees, pre buss, check out,
as well as handling just drink orders for the guests who do not wish
to eat.
Bj’s Restaurant and Brewhouse — Server
November 2023- July 2024
As a Server at a higher class restaurant, I learned to politely be able
to upsell drinks and food. Tend to all of my tables needs in a busy environment, while also helping coworkers/hosts.
Raptor Consultant Group, Raleigh — Sales Rep
September 2023- November 2023
As a Sales Rep, I quickly learned the system and tactics that most Sales associates use. I was promoted within my first week at the job and quickly started bringing in $1000+ weekly in revenue. Currently just not what I was looking for in a job so I decided to leave after trying it out for a bit.
Highway 55 Burgers, Fuquay — Server
January 2023- June 2023
As a server, I greeted people and handled menus, took drink and food orders, run food, bus tables, restock around the floor, do dishes, clean, take phone orders/door dash orders, as well as cashing out all of my customers.
Jersey Mikes, Fuquay — Employee
August 2019 - March 2023
As a main team member on extremely busy morning shifts, I swiftly handled many positions at once, including but not limited to, making cold and hot subs, wrapping the subs, handling register by checking out in line customers and preparing the extremely popular doordash orders, as well as still doing my restock tasks/managing the bread oven. I easily managed to clear out the lunch rush line even when we were understaffed.
Backyard Bistro, Cary — Concession Worker
May 2017 to October 2022
As a concession stand worker, I quickly graduated from just preparing basic food, to taking orders and handling money (cash and card) as well as doing simple math to calculate the customer’s total.
